# laconicd-full-node

Instructions for deploying a laconicd full node along with steps to join testnet as a validator post genesis

Minimum hardware requirements:

- RAM: 8-16GB
- Disk space: 200GB
- CPU: 2 cores

## Clone the stack repo

```bash
laconic-so fetch-stack git.vdb.to/cerc-io/testnet-laconicd-stack
```

## Clone required repositories

```bash
laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconicd-full-node setup-repositories
```

## Build the fixturenet-eth containers

```bash
laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconicd-full-node build-containers
```

This should create several container images in the local image registry:

* cerc/laconic2d
* cerc/laconic-registry-cli
* cerc/webapp-base
* cerc/laconic-console-host

## Deploy the stack

```bash
laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconicd-full-node deploy up
```

## Check status

<!-- TODO -->

## Join as testnet validator

<!-- TODO import a funded account / create an account and get it funded -->

<!-- TODO create a validator-->

## Clean up

Stop all services running in the background:

```bash
laconic-so --stack ~/cerc/testnet-laconicd-stack/stack-orchestrator/stacks/laconicd-full-node deploy down
```
